<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a restraint tool capable of restraining an in-vehicle bellows tube to desired states of a longitudinal direction position, a torsion angle, and a wiring posture. <P>SOLUTION: A restraint tool includes: an inside half-split pipe positioned in the inside of a curved shape of a bellows tube and bent in the middle thereof; a first outside half-split pipe positioned on one side of the bent portion and covering the outside of the curved shape; and a second outside half-split pipe positioned on the other side of the bent portion and covering the outside of the curved shape. The first outside half-split pipe and the second outside half-split pipe can be independently opened and closed with respect to the inside half-split pipe. The insides of the pipes are provided with protruding strips. A cross section of the protruding strip becomes wider as it deeply goes into a gap between large diameter portions of the bellows tube. When the bellows tube is placed along the inside half-split pipe, both sides of the protruding stripe are brought into close contact with the large diameter portion of the bellows tube. As a result, a longitudinal direction position and a torsion angle of the bellows tube with respect to the restraint tool are restricted to regulate a wiring posture of the bellows tube. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2013,JPO&INPIT |
